remove a wordpress site on a multisite server #182

Open diroots opened 7 years ago

Hello there.

I followed this guide https://github.com/carlalexander/debops-wordpress/wiki/How-to-configure-multiple-WordPress-sites-on-a-single-server to manage multiple wordpress sites on a single server.

all wordpress sites on the server are defined through a dns wildcard pointing to the server's ip: 

# inventory/hosts

 [debops_all_hosts]
 first.example.com
 second.example.com
 third.example.com
 ... 

 [wordpress]
 first.example.com
 second.example.com
 third.example.com
 ...

As many points are configured for a single wordpress site, i'd like to know how to correctly purge the server about any configuration for a site I want to remove / delete from the server (webroot folder, nginx vhosts configs, unix users, fw rules, databases, varnish config,.... )
